The Ford Transit Custom SWB is a popular and versatile choice for campervan conversions, offering a balance of practicality and style.

Suitable for all models including the 2024+ new shape.

Bi Fold Elevating Bed

Add a bi-fold bed to your conversion to provide comfortable accommodation for one or two people, then fold it away to make the most of the available living space.

Create additional sleeping space within your new roof with our purpose-designed bed boards which fold away to provide additional headroom when not in use.

Scenic Canvas

Open up the interior space in your campervan conversion with our scenic canvas option, allowing you to enjoy the fresh air and take in the view.

Transit Custom Elevating Roof’s Designed and built in the UK.

We design, manufacture and test each of our Transit Custom high-top and elevating roofs at our UK factory — allowing us to guarantee quality craftsmanship from start to finish, including woodwork, metalwork and interior trimming.

Created by campers, for campers

From build quality, to ease of operation, to those finishing touches which make all the difference to your Transit Custom campervan, every design choice we make is informed by a long family history of converting, customising and enjoying our own motorhomes.

Quieter ride, greater efficiency

The integrated front spoiler, combined with the roof's low profile when closed, minimises wind noise and drag, leading to a quieter, more fuel-efficient journey than you would experience with a standard roof design.

Designed for safety and reliability

Each Ford Transit Custom elevating roof is built around a single-piece box section frame for exceptional strength and rigidity. Multiple mounting points ensure a secure fit without the need for drilling through the roof, and the stainless steel hinges offer reliable, corrosion-resistant operation.

Built-in lighting system

Enhance the interior ambience of your campervan with integrated LED lighting, seamlessly incorporated within the roof lining. Concealed wiring, housed within tailored fabric panels, minimises clutter and maintains a clean aesthetic.

Quality guaranteed with our 5-year warranty

Our high-top and elevating roofs are built to last, with extensive inspections, checks and testing at each stage of our in-house manufacturing process. This is reflected in our standard 5-year warranty on every roof sold.

Any Questions?

If you can’t find the information you’re looking for here, give us a call/send us an email and we’ll be happy to answer any questions you have.

Do you offer custom-built roofs?

We don’t offer a custom commissioning service for one-off roof designs, as our meticulous design, development and quality assurance process would make this prohibitively expensive. However, we offer several customisation options (depending on the individual roof) including colour-coding, windows and openings, interior carpeting and integrated bed boards.

Can I purchase a roof online?

As all our roofs are professionally installed, and usually customised to some extent, we don’t offer a “buy online” option. To place an order, use our online configurator or fill out the enquiry form on the relevant product page, and we’ll be in touch to advise you on the price and recommend the closest approved installer. Billing will then be handled directly through your installer.

Do you sell roofs as kits for self-assembly?

We don’t sell roof kits directly to our customers, as we’re committed to guaranteeing the quality of the installation by carrying it out in-house or via our approved installers — allowing us to offer a comprehensive 5-year warranty. The one exception is for our Land Rover Defender elevating roofs, as the unique nature of the vehicle makes this a much easier home installation.

I can’t find my vehicle listed – are there other roofs available?

Yes, there are a number of cases where a roof designed for one model will fit another model perfectly — sometimes even a different make and model. This is due to manufacturers sharing platforms, meaning the same Drivelodge roof will fit any model with the same roof shape. Get in touch to learn if we have an existing roof compatible with your vehicle, or one in the design process. 

When can I drop off / collect my vehicle?

If you’d like to have your new roof conversion carried out at our North Yorkshire facility, then you’ll need to arrange this in advance with us, at which point we’ll discuss the best time for delivery and collection. If you’re using one of our dedicated network of approved installers, then you should deal with them directly to schedule the best time to drop off and collect your vehicle.
